Verify a decision
Every moderation decision on AVOID.NET is anchored to the Solana blockchain. You don't have to trust us — you can verify cryptographically that we committed to a verdict at a specific moment and have not rewritten it.
How verification works
- We commit. When a moderator accepts/rejects a submission, we serialize the decision into deterministic UTF-8 bytes (
payload_canonical_string), hash it with SHA-256, encode the digest as base58, and write it to Solana inside an SPL Memo v2 transaction. - We store the bytes. The exact bytes we hashed are stored alongside the decision in our database. Anyone can read them and recompute the hash in any language.
- You compare three values. Database hash, your independently-recomputed hash, and the hash inside the on-chain memo. If all three match, the decision is authentic and timestamped.
The on-chain memo format is
AVOID.NET|v1|h:<b58-sha256>|d:<id>|t:<iso>Find a signature on any investigation page's decision log, or run python -m src.verify_decision --signature <sig> for a CLI check.

However, the review found a cluster of specific errors: an internal date error (Sun's lawsuit is dated '2025' on the page but was actually filed April 2026), a reversed chronology on the CZ pardon/MGX deal, a simple arithmetic slip (22.4% vs. the correct 22.5%), an unsupported and likely overstated tokenomics figure (70-75% insider allocation vs. 33-45% in the page's own cited sources), a reputationally significant unsupported claim about Herro's 'prior theft convictions', a misattributed Senate quote ('seriously inadequate' belongs to Sen. Blumenthal on a different matter, not 'the Senate Banking Committee'), an unverifiable citation (Oxford Business Law Blog), and a conflated/incorrect claim about WLFI 'rebuffing' a 2025 Senate letter (the real rebuff was the OCC rebuffing Warren in 2026). The page is also stale on the OCC charter outcome, which had already reached preliminary conditional approval by the time of this review. None of the disputed items undermine the page's overall thrust, but several require correction before the page can be considered reliably sourced.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":5,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
